Indians earn smooth 3-2 win thanks to Brantley’s early swing; three takeaways

CLEVELAND– Baseball is officially back in The Land as the Indians won their second straight home opener, topping the Kansas City Royals, 3-2.

It’s no secret that the Indians have had a slow start when it comes to swinging the bats this season, and on Friday they still only recorded four hits compared to Kansas City’s seven, while stranding seven runners as well. In the end, however, their early lead would be more than enough to push them over the finish line.

They continue their series with the Royals tomorrow at 4:10 p.m., but for now, here are three takeaways from the home opener win.
